One alternative measureis faculty peer observation. We have developed a novel faculty peer observation protocol focusedon self-reflection and formative feedback for STEM faculty.

The reflection prompt defined surroundings as the “conditions and objects thatsurround you.” This reflection question was part of an NSF-funded study on the use of weeklyreflection in a flipped fluid mechanics course to drive metacognitive development and lifelonglearning skills. During class, students were encouraged to collaborate with their peers duringproblem solving to achieve collective understanding and interact with the instructor.

To examine the impact on learning,students were required to write reflections about their learning every week after their labexperience. Reflections were then analyzed from a corpus-based discourse analytic perspective forwhat kind of knowledge the students gained in the PLP experience, procedural or declarative.Additionally, the language in the reflections was analyzed for stance—the students’ perspectiveson what they claimed they had learned. Results showed that students were gaining proceduralknowledge throughout the semester. In this PLP experience, which follows a trajectory of research,implementation and integration, the procedural knowledge was articulated with less

The attendees included 98 STEMfaculty from several universities all interested in the topic of reflective teaching. Many ofthe participants had been trained in evidence-based instructional practices and faculty peerobservation. A survey of participants asked these faculty to reflect on the idea of a T1classification and how it might be framed in the broader conversation about enhancingSTEM teaching. The survey responses were grouped based on change quadrants. Theresponses indicated alignment around reflective teaching, inclusive classroom practices,and recognition of excellence in pedagogy.Introduction and

Introduction of this workshop was motivated by the significant roleGTAs play in implementing teaching change in the large courses targeted by the project (e.g.,leading recitations and labs) and the need for GTAs to have structured professional developmentbefore the semester begins. In the early years of the project, GTAs met semi-regularly withintheir departments during the semester

Collaborative inquiry, in contrast to collaborative autoethnography, is a researchapproach where people pair reflection on practice with action through multiple cycles of reflection,collective sense-making, and action. The combination of these methodologies allowed us to deeply andsystematically explore our own experiences, allowing us to develop a model of professional agencytowards change in engineering education through collaborative sense-making. Throughout this process,data collection included (1) written reflections, (2) weekly meetings, and (3) framework activities.Previous works have described the design and analysis of the written reflections [1], [2] and the weeklymeetings [3].

teachers and students. The diversity of the teacher workforce in the USA,however, does not reflect the diversity of the student population, resulting in most Americanstudents coming from different backgrounds than their teachers [1]. When teachers do notunderstand the different backgrounds of their students, learning can be inhibited. As Delpit [2]explains, “We educators set out to teach, but how can we reach the worlds of others when wedon't even know they exist?” (pg. 14).One way educators can learn more about the cultures of their students is through the use ofethnographic observation methods [3,4]. Through studying the communities and homes of theirstudents, teachers can identify local and familial funds of knowledge that students bring

These include activities such as constructing knowledge that is new to participant ornew to field, collaboration, testing ideas, and dissemination. Some codes reflect students’attitudes and beliefs, such as career goals or plans; challenges they faced when doing research;and aspects of mentoring or supervision. Other codes reflect aspects of students’ experiences,such as recognition, failure, gaining skills, or feeling a sense of gratification. These codes will beparticularly important for Phase III of this project, in which we will identify ways to transfer ourfindings to instructional practice
